Chapter 15: The Palace Banquet (2)

Although it is the truth, if someone listens to it, it is inevitable that they will be displeased.

Jiang Fuguang glanced at Cheng Engong on the seat vaguely.

Really!

Cheng Engong had no smile on his face, but because of Zhang Chengxian's words, he was too clever to say it, and he couldn't refute it for a while.

There are North Qiang people in the north to disturb the South Vietnamese people in the south, and the North and South Dynasties have not raised troops on a large scale, and what they are guarding against is foreign invasion.

The discord between the two dynasties is the division and contradiction within the summer land, just like the "brothers" of a family fighting in the nest, but the hearts of the two dynasties to resist foreign countries are the same.

Emperor Nanxing took into account the overall situation when the Northern Dynasty was in danger and agreed to negotiate peace.

In the Northern Dynasties, it was benevolence and righteousness;

For the people of the two dynasties, it was also benevolence;

In terms of the great Han land, it is also a holy ming!

In just a few words, Emperor Nanxing was shaped into a generation of Ming monarchs.

Who can argue otherwise?

Emperor Nanxing did not speak.

The officials of the Southern Dynasties below were a little dissatisfied with this, thinking that the Northern Dynasties had lost the war, and they had sent indemnities and protons to negotiate peace, but they were still holding a posture, which was too ignorant.

But it's not good to jump out and pick thorns.

Ji Ruxuan hooked his lips playfully, in fact, since the exile of the Yu family, the first family of the Northern Dynasty, the national strength of the Northern Dynasty has declined, and the Northern Dynasty has to choose to negotiate peace to buffer the huge threat brought by the Qiang people to the Northern Dynasty.

Zhang Chengxian bowed and saluted: "Minister, Zhang Chengxian, on the order of our emperor, with the [thank you gift] prepared by my emperor for His Majesty in the Southern Dynasty, sent to the Southern Dynasty, on behalf of our emperor, I am sincerely grateful to His Majesty the Southern Dynasty, and I also thank His Majesty the Southern Dynasty for his hospitality, and I would like to use this wine to represent my emperor and pay tribute to His Majesty the Southern Dynasty," he slowly knelt on the ground, and the envoys of the Northern Dynasty behind him also knelt down one after another, "Long live long live long live." ”

Therefore, the cession of the city and the huge amount of compensation are all "thank you gifts" from the emperor of the Northern Dynasty to Emperor Nanxing in gratitude for the benevolence, righteousness and benevolence of Emperor Nanxing.

It's really a clever mouth, which not only takes care of the dignity of the Northern Dynasty, but also doesn't forget to put a high hat on Emperor Nanxing.

The important thing in the diplomatic relations between the two countries is sincerity, and the rest is secondary.

Zhang Chengxian's words and deeds, although he has the intention of safeguarding the dignity of the Northern Dynasties, but his sincerity is full, but anyone who has brains will not care about anything in this kind of matter.

Such a talent, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites is really buried.

It's just that the envoys led by the Northern Dynasty are so powerful, how could they agree to the Southern Dynasty on the day when the prince of this dynasty entered Beijing, openly insulting the prince of this dynasty and trampling on the dignity of the Northern Dynasty?

Is there a hidden meaning in this?

Jiang Fuguang glanced at his father.

Sure enough, Emperor Nanxing did not see a trace of displeasure on his face, and bowed his head slightly, as if he agreed with Zhang Chengxian's words: "The sincerity of the emperor of the Northern Dynasty is understood in my heart." ”

The palace feast continued.

A palace maid came to serve wine, and the amber wine condensed into the cup, exuding a very mellow and elegant aroma of wine, and suddenly the fragrance overflowed the hall, and the fragrance was endless.

Cheng Engong stroked a handful of short beards: "This is the amber wine of the Southern Dynasty, because the color of the wine is clear, like amber, so it gets its name, and it is a very precious tribute wine of the Southern Dynasty." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled deeply and glanced at the envoys of the Northern Dynasty.

"I heard that the northern region is bitter cold, I must have never tasted the beauty of amber, the prince of the Northern Dynasty, and the envoys from the Northern Dynasty, you must taste it well, don't let down Your Majesty's hospitality."

In and out of the words, it is all the enthusiasm of entertaining guests, but the sentence 'bitter cold in the north' inevitably reveals the meaning of stepping low.

It can be seen that Zhang Chengxian's words poked into the lung tube.

At that moment, some courtiers followed suit.

No matter how unhappy the officials from the Northern Dynasties were, they tried to show an embarrassed but not rude smile and respond to the belittling from the Southern Dynasties with silence.

The scene was awkward and uninteresting.

Ji Ruxuan held the wine glass, turned her head slightly, and looked at Princess Fuguang above from time to time, with a smile on her lips, revealing a hint of playfulness.

After the spring feast, there were a lot of rumors in the capital.

In general, Princess Fuguang is pampered and arrogant.

The Chengen Mansion was worried that Jiang Fuguang would interfere in the palace banquet, so he specially arranged this play, and did he know that Princess Fuguang was not planning to retreat?

How many of the unfavorable rumors about Princess Fuguang in Kyori are her own handiwork?

Public opinion is indeed a weapon for destroying people.

It's hard to control.

Once it gets out of control, it will eat itself.

This princess of Fuguang is even more interesting than you imagined.

She's still so good-looking, as if she can glow.

Well, I can't bear to let her die.

Perhaps, change the rules of the game?

Jiang Jingzhang, who was sitting opposite, saw that Ji Ruxuan was a little absent-minded, and smiled playfully: "Why doesn't the prince of the Northern Dynasty drink alcohol, but do you think that the wine of my Southern Dynasty is not as good as the wine of the Northern Dynasty?" ”

As soon as this statement came out-

One by one, they looked at Ji Ruxuan.

At the palace banquet, no one would blatantly target Ji Ruxuan and set up a banquet to entertain them, for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

But it is still necessary to take the opportunity to make things difficult and give the Northern Dynasty proton a dismount, so as not to let others despise the merits of the Chengen Mansion because of Zhang Chengxian's talents.

It seems that if you don't accompany them to finish singing this play, I'm afraid you won't give up.

Ji Ruxuan smiled, picked up the amber wine in front of him, and shook the glass lightly, the amber wine was crystal clear, like a jade dew liquid.

He clutched his glass and slowly got up.

When he stood up, he made a squirming sound, causing the eyes of the temple to cast on him from all directions.

The atmosphere was slightly somber.

Ji Ruxuan picked up the cup and walked into the hall with a little casualness: "Cheng Engong is right, the north is bitter and cold, and it should not be as rich as the south. ”

The officials of the Northern Dynasty cast angry eyes on him.

Ji Ruxuan turned a deaf ear and met Emperor Nanxing's condescending gaze.

He slowly lowered his head and bowed down: "Xuan, entering the land of the Southern Dynasty, everywhere he passed, he praised His Majesty the Southern Dynasty's martial arts, benevolence and dedication, and his efforts to govern the country moved the heavens, so that the heavens sent auspicious rui, blessed the Southern Dynasty Sheji, and achieved the prosperity of the Southern Dynasty." ”

As soon as this 'auspicious rain from the sky' exited, the atmosphere of the Taiji Hall immediately became interesting.

Cheng Engong's face was a little unpleasant.

Ji Ruxuan's words, but he didn't say it explicitly, the reason why the Southern Dynasty has today's Zhongxing situation is Jiang Fuguang's credit.

Cheng'en Gong was able to win the battle, which is also the reason why the Southern Dynasty had the protection of 'Xiangrui', as if the Cheng'en Mansion won the battle, and the credit was all on Jiang Fuguang alone.

Cheng'en Gong and Jiang Jingzhang sang and harmonized, wanting to give Ji Ruxuan a dismount and publicize the merits of the Cheng'en Mansion, but they miscalculated.

Jiang Fuguang finally felt that the palace banquet was a little interesting, and couldn't help but look at Ji Ruxuan twice.

Emperor Nanxing looked at Ji Ruxuan, his expression was a little unpredictable: "I, when I ascended the throne, the Southern Dynasty continued to have natural and man-made disasters, riots and rebellions were frequent, the treasury was empty, and the society was not prosperous. ”
